I don’t think we can compare Karl and Alessandro. To be fair, Chanel in 2018 doesn’t look like Chanel in 2015. We can’t compare someone with a 50+ years career and a relative newcomer.The narrative might be the same but for better or worse, there are some difference.
I can compare JWA and Alessandro and now, same time frame and all, the gap is huge.
But Gucci is just overexposed. They don’t produce in small quantities...There are just too much stuff. They might have the most insane product reference in the business right now.
A think a reset or touch of fresh air could help Michele on a long term...The same for Demna.
Eventually, people will be tired of their aesthetic and they needs to move on. But in fashion, in order to lead the conversation, you have to move on while on top.
He surely didn’t meant something disrespectful. Except for Stefano Gabbana, I don’t know who can do this kind of things.
But the comparison and all felt ignorant. It’s just a fact.
The reality is that designers nowadays are not doing interviews « like that ». There’s the PR somewhere and certainly they are checking the interviews before it’s published. This is what is done for those big brands...
Unless you’re Karl or Tom aka mastermind media manipulators, you can’t really do interviews « freely ».
Karl is years and years long on the top and there were/are always the mainline or red line which wend and going through his collections. (i think Chanel 2015 was better than 201 Demna is more a hype , imo.
They don't produce so much, a lot of different pieces and it seems like they produce too much. It is 4th year now but still happens that some items are out of stock/sold out . Do you remember the first collection and Cruise after, they didn't have so many items and everything was sold out, lol.
I have to admit that i was surpised too , seems as nobody from PR (or he by himself) didn't read the interview before. Me, too, pretty sure that he didn't mean something disrespectful.
Stefano Gabbana is No Go, damn, all what he did, said, wrote ( does, says, writes, lol) his comments and chats which Diet_Prada posted , but c'mon, Stefano's comment under Kardashians family post. OMG...
Seems that D&G have no time for design but only for apologize in last 12-10 years.. they commited a lot, you don't have to be a fashion "expert" because all what you need it's a Google and Wikipedia, to choose about which "apologize" you want to recherche, it is really crazy...
